Would i be able to use and view DVDs on my A1200?

The data transfer rate you need for DVD is huge. It's like 30MB/s or something. There's absolutely no way you can get this on an Amiga, even if you had the CPU power to decode what you got back - which you don't.

Normal DVDs dont exceed 1.5 MB/s

Actually, you could be right.

But it's not just the transfer rate, it's the CPU load. PIO controllers like Amiga IDE or most of its SCSI solutions eat almost all CPU time at full transfer.

KennyR, I didn't mean to offend you.
DVDs use about 1.5MB/sec and thats final.
I just wanted to correct something that might have put the conversation way out.

No problem, you were right and I was wrong. ;-)
